Quark oscillations occur in spaces that are on the femtometer scale and they are unmeasurable from the point of view of experiments. However, the consequence of those oscillations is the CP violating phase for quarks, which is measured through unitary triangles in Wolfenstein’s parameterization. Through the mathematical model presented in this paper, the equation in Wolfenstein’s parameterization was derived, the root of which is consistent with measurements in today’s quark physics.展开更多

In such a way, complex Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrices are achieved which stand for the violation of CP symmetry. At the beginning, two necessary but not sufficient conditions for yielding a complex CKM matrix are stated as criteria. Then we found an interesting condition between the real and imaginary parts of a Hermitian 3 × 3 matrix which may provide extra relations among its parameters and reduce the number of them from eighteen down to five. In previous investigations, this can be done only down to nine. With another assumption among some of those parameters, the mass-matrix pattern is further simplified so as to be diagonalized analytically and in consequence four matrices which reveal S<sub>N</sub> symmetries among or between quark generations are obtained. In some of such S<sub>N</sub>-symmetric cases, the derived CKM matrices are complex which indicate that CP symmetry is violated accordingly. Taking the Jarlskog invariant as an estimate of the CPV strength, the value predicted by this model is orders stronger than the empirical value detected experimentally. However, that happens to fill partly the gap between the cosmologically observed amount of Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) and that current Standard Model of particle physics predicts. It also proves the long suspected existence of BAU-productive eras in early universe if some fermions were indistinguishable, <em>i.e.</em>, S<sub>N</sub>-symmetric, under circumstances with extremely high temperatures.展开更多

In this work we first propose a diagonalization method. As its application, in the Standard Model with one vector-like quark doublet we present the quark mass spectrum and Feynman rules for the calculation of B → Xsγ. We find that i) under the constraints of the CKM matrix measurements, the mass parameters in the bilinear term are constrained to a small value by the small deviation from unitarity; ii) compared with the fourth generation extension of the Standard Model, there is an enhancement to the B → Xsγ process in the contribution of vector-like quarks, resulting in a non-decoupling effect in such models.展开更多

In this case, the model has 9 real parameters: aT, α↑,β↑,ξ↑,η↑T for the T-quark sector, α↓,β↓,ξ↓,η↓, for the sector and a common X- We examine whether these nine parameters are compatible with ten observables: the six quark masses and the four real parameters that characterize the CKM matrix (i.e., the Jarlskog invariant and three Eulerian angles). We find that this is possible only if the T violating phase X is large, between -120^o to -135^o. In this strong T violating model, the smallness of theJarlskog invariant 3 × 10^-5 ismainly accounted for by the large heavy quark masses, with mc/mt〈ms/mb≈0.02, as well as the near completeoverlap of t and b quark, with (c|b)=-0.04.展开更多
